Xanax began to lose effectiveness for me. I was up to 5mgs / day. I think you'll find find that all benzo's will lose some of their anti-anxiety effect over time due to tolerance, despite what the stugies say. That has been my experience with xanax and ativan anyway. And no I don't mean they'll lose their sedative or hypnotic effect. They will retain some of that anti-anxiety effect, just like they'll retain some of their sedative effect, but this will wean with time. I'd say just pick one and go for it.
